This highly-regarded Covent Garden restaurant and wine bar followed on from the popular Marylebone original, continuing the theme of top-notch modern-European food accompanied by a pretty serious wine list. The group has now added a late-night venue serving up jazz every night of the week, but here it remains all about the food and wine.
And that’s certainly no bad thing, with a very readable seasonal menu going big on classics: think chicken supreme, moules marinières, chunky rib-eye steaks and an ace slow-roasted shoulder of lamb with a white bean stew and runner beans. Both the wine pairings (‘Discovery’ and ‘Prestige’) showcase the venue’s expertise.
Keep an eye out for a great-value pre-theatre menu, as well as some excellent bar snacks. Recommended.
